855. Chapter 853 Cave Abode Alchemy

He realized that living in Central Province was far more expensive than in Southern Province, and to avoid a shortage of spirit stones, he decided to earn more spirit stones through pill refinement.

Although his pill-refining skill had not yet reached sixth grade or above, he still decided to try.

After entering the cave abode, Lu Yuan looked around at the old layout and simple facilities, thinking to himself: Although it is simple, after all, this is where he will cultivate next, and also the stage for his future growth.

He decided to first tidy up the cave abode to make it more suitable for his cultivation.

Lu Yuan opened his pack, took out some cleaning tools, and began to tidy the cave abode in an orderly manner.

He sorted and categorized the piled-up miscellaneous items, thinking about how to improve the environment while busily working.

Although this cave abode is simple, it holds infinite possibilities waiting for him to develop.

After cleaning the cave abode, Lu Yuan set up the pill-refining furnace in a corner, took out the previously purchased Spirit Condensing Pill and placed it aside, preparing to begin attempting refinement.

He lit the furnace fire, prepared the pill-refining materials, and began to immerse himself in the pill-refinement process.

As the furnace flames rose, a strong medicinal fragrance filled the cave abode; Lu Yuan focused on controlling the heat and infusing spiritual power, constantly adjusting his posture, carefully refining each bottle of pill.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, yet he did not pause, fully concentrating on immersing himself in pill refinement.

"Here we need to add a bit more spiritual power and keep the heat more stable!"

Lu Yuan muttered to himself, constantly adjusting his posture, having full confidence in his pill-refining skill.

He knew well that only by striving for perfection could he refine higher-quality pills.

Lu Yuan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the surge of profound power within his body.

Ten days of cultivation allowed his cultivation to leap forward in quality, and the omen of the impending heavenly tribulation lingered in his mind.

During his cultivation in the cave abode, Lu Yuan continually adjusted his condition, preparing to welcome the approaching heavenly tribulation.

He realized that now was the time to leave Dream Source City and go to the wilderness to undergo the tribulation, hoping to increase his cultivation more quickly.

The cave abode before him seemed to have become the starting point of his cultivation, every inch of land bearing witness to his growth.

Lu Yuan decided that before leaving, he would properly organize this place to make it more suitable for his cultivation.

He picked up the broom in his hand and began sweeping the miscellaneous items off the ground; each sweep was accompanied by a ripple of spiritual aura, as if the cave abode were responding to his efforts.

"The spiritual aura concentration here is much higher than outside; it truly is a good place for cultivation."

Lu Yuan sighed inwardly.

After cleaning the ground, he began adjusting the layout of the cave abode, moving the pill-refining furnace to a more ventilated spot so that his pill refinement would go more smoothly.

After finishing the tidying, Lu Yuan walked to the cave abode entrance, looked around, and nodded in satisfaction.

This simple cave abode has already been turned by him into a place suitable for cultivation.

As night fell, Lu Yuan took out the Spirit Condensing Pill and prepared to refine it.

He lit the furnace fire, arranged the various materials neatly, and began to devote himself wholeheartedly to pill refinement.

As the furnace fire burned, spiritual power danced in his hand, continually merging into the pill-refining furnace.

A hint of focus and determination showed in Lu Yuan's brow, and his control over pill refinement became increasingly proficient.

"The heat needs to be increased a bit more, and the spiritual power must be infused more deeply!"

Lu Yuan murmured to himself, flexibly adjusting the furnace temperature and the flow of spiritual power with his technique.

Sweat slid down his cheeks, but he did not stop.

Each refinement is a growth; he knows well that only by continually challenging himself can he continually improve.

After a series of careful adjustments, a bottle of crystal-clear Spirit Condensing Pill was successfully refined.

Lu Yuan picked up the pill, examined it carefully, and smiled with satisfaction.

"Finally succeeded!"

He clenched his fists joyfully, a sense of fulfillment and achievement welling up in his chest.

Lu Yuan placed the carefully refined Spirit Condensing Pill into his bosom, happily left the cave abode, and walked all the way to the market town.

After passing through the bustling streets, he arrived at the shop named Hundred Dawn Pavilion that sells information.

He pushed open the shop door; a fresh fragrance rushed over him, making one feel as if standing in a mountainside brushed by a cool breeze.

Lu Yuan looked around and saw that the shop's furnishings were exquisite and elegant; various delicate and translucent jade plaques hung on the walls, each bearing special runes that emitted a mysterious aura.

The shop attendant stepped forward and smiled at Lu Yuan, saying: "Sir, welcome to Hundred Dawn Pavilion."

"I am the attendant of the pavilion; if you have any needs, please just tell me."

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, nodded, and asked: "I heard that this place offers an introduction service for specialty shops; could you help me learn about it?"

The attendant, hearing this, said with an even brighter smile: "Of course, just relax your soul a little, and I will introduce you to the city's specialty shops."

Lu Yuan did as told, closing his eyes and relaxing his soul.

Following the attendant's guidance, he felt a weak force seep into his mind, as if an invisible hand gently stroked his divine sense, and gradually he saw a series of dreamlike images.

In the images, various specialty shops appeared before his eyes: there was the Star Pavilion selling immortal artifacts, the Spirit Beast Workshop providing immortal beast companions, and the Immortal Medicine Hall specializing in selling immortal medicine pills……

After some inquiries, they learned of a shop called the Wind and Cloud Pavilion, an information shop said to have the most well-informed news, able to provide the most accurate news in the city.

Thus, Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er entered this Wind and Cloud Pavilion.

The shop's interior was luxurious yet elegant, with various strange treasures hanging on the walls, emitting charming light.

A shop owner dressed in splendid robes stepped forward and smiled at them, saying: "Honored guests, welcome to Wind and Cloud Pavilion; I am the shop owner Yun Piaopiao, please tell me any needs you have."

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, looked at Yun Piaopiao, and directly asked: "I want to obtain information about Jiang Sheng; do you think you can provide it?"

Yun Piaopiao, upon hearing this, slightly changed expression but quickly returned to a smile, saying: "Sir, Jiang Sheng is a treasure of the city; his information is not easily obtained."

"However, if you are willing to pay a price, perhaps I can help you inquire."

Lu Yuan understood clearly, knowing that obtaining information often requires a price, so he nodded, indicating his willingness to pay.

Yun Piaopiao smiled as she took the payment, then began to probe for information using the formation inside the shop.

After a moment, Yun Piaopiao opened her eyes, her expression somewhat solemn, and said to Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er: "Jiang Sheng is indeed no ordinary existence; his strength far surpasses the ordinary."

I heard that he once displayed astonishing talent in a great competition, and gained the favor of Great Venerable Jiang.
